Tokyo Olympic stadium worker’s jersey death follows 190 hours of overtime in month

Japanese labour inspectors have determined that the suicide of a 23-year-old man who worked at Tokyo’s new Olympic Authentic Ronald Darby Jersey stadium construction site stemmed from overwork, and that his family was eligible for government compensation.

Hiroshi Kawahito, a lawyer representing the bereaved family, said that the victim, in charge of quality control of materials at the stadium site, recorded 190 hours of overtime in one month before killing himself in March, http://www.broncosnflofficialonline.com/Terrell-Davis-Jersey according to Japan’s NHK public television. The worker had been in the role for less than a year.

The amount of overtime was way over 80 hours, a threshold for karoshi (death from overwork). Labour officials in Tokyo found the victim, who was not Authentic Glover Quin Jersey identified by name, also recorded 160 hours of overtime in January.

Work at the new stadium has been intense because of its delayed start. An earlier stadium plan was scrapped due to spiralling costs and an unpopular design. On an average day, about http://www.nflcardinalsofficialstore.com/YOUTH+KURT+WARNER+JERSEY 1,000 workers are at the project led by Taisei Corp, Japan’s construction giant.

The death of the worker captured national attention in July when his family sought the government to certify him as a karoshi victim. The body of the man was found in the central Japan mountains in April, http://www.officialramsnflproshop.com/YOUTH+ROBERT+QUINN+JERSEY weeks after he disappeared, with a suicide note saying he was “physically and mentally pushed to the limit”. Government and company officials say they have since kept close tabs on overwork and taken measures to improve the working environment.

In late September, Tokyo labour officials who investigated nearly 800 subcontractors of Taisei found illegal Craig Conroy Adidas Jersey overwork at nearly 40 companies. Employees at 18 companies did overtime exceeding 80 hours per month, and several of them exceeding 150 hours.

The Jose Canseco Adidas Jersey construction sector is excluded from the government’s planned tightening of overtime limits for the time being. Last year, construction was one of the most http://www.officialraptorsshop.com/authentic-92-lucas-nogueira-jersey.html karoshi-prone sectors in Japan, with 16 victims acknowledged by the government.

The worker was the latest among recent high-profile karoshi cases. Last Friday, in the case of Matsuri Takahashi, a 24-year-old employee at the Japanese advertising agency Dentsu, Tokyo’s summary court ordered the company to pay a 500,000-yen (£3,375) fine over her suicide in 2015. After doing 100 hours of overtime a month, Takahashi developed depression and leaped from her apartment building to her death. The meagre amount of the fine angered many Japanese, who sympathised with Takahashi and her mother, who has since become an anti-karoshi activist.

Also last week, NHK revealed that one of its reporters, who died of heart failure four years ago, was certified as a karoshi victim in May 2016. Miwa Sato, then 31, was covering national elections. She was reportedly still holding her cellphone when found collapsed at home in the summer of 2013. NHK pledged to prevent the problem recurring.
